Cape Cod Canal Home
You could not select a better location than this, with access to the Cape, beaches, and the Canal road for biking and walking. The apartment is modern and immaculate with a nice deck on which to relax. To top it off you could not find more pleasant hosts than Diane and Barry. We will surely visit again!

Beachside Condo with Balcony - Oceanside Condos
Beautiful apt for a couple! You can see and fall asleep by the ocean. My husband and I stayed for a wedding, but we'll definetely be back in the summer to take advantage of the pool to teach our baby how to swim!

King bed/Hot Tub/Waterfront-The Lotus
Tara is an absolutely wonderful host! We had the BEST girls weekend relaxing in the hot tub and checking out nearby shops and restaurants. The location is amazing. We're already thinking about planning our next trip to the cape! Thank you so much for having us! 🩷

Beautiful Creekside Apartment in Wellfleet Center
One of the most comfortable places we’ve rented on Airbnb. And the proximity to historic Duck Creek can’t be beat…so much more impressive than photos can do justice.

Harbor view apartment, a quick walk from the ferry
I had a restful stay at Mark's place. It's in walking distance to the ferry along with other amenities like bike rental, supermarket, local restaurants, the Net Result, as well as the ferry terminal. It's a great option for anyone who wants to visit MV without a car as local buses are also nearby. Mark tends to his home with care. It's a distinctive place with tons of character, just like MV, which is why I've been returning to the island for 30+ years. I'll be back!

Bright Condo on private beach
The condo location is ideal for a quiet beach getaway or a sightseeing excursion. It is located at the outermost point of Cape Cod right on a private beach next to the Atlantic Ocean inlet. Beautiful yet comfortable condo+beautiful views=magnificent vacation

Waterfront with Views & Kitchen-Preston Cross Hall
Very much enjoyed my stay at Lucy Cross. Wonderful, welcoming, responsive hosts. Terrific location. Sweet space that was nicely decorated (some lovely art in the walls, gorgeous tiles in the bathroom) and the views of the beach (steps away) and the pier (in the distance) were gorgeous…better than the pictures in the listing. Would happily stay here again the next time I am staying in P’Town!

1BR @ Edgewater Beach Resort - Dennis Port, MA
We have a view from the living and bedroom of the ocean. The place is sparkle clean, has everything you need. Instructions are clear and hosts responsive!

Waterfront Home w/ Dock, Heated Pool, Kayaks & A/C
Prescott’s house is such a relaxing place to stay with a big group. The house has a very pretty view and is very clean and peaceful. We are very grateful for such a nice stay at this beautiful house. The BBQ outside didn’t work great but other than that we had a wonderful time! Thank you Prescott.

Waterfront New Cottage Private Beach
What a cool spot! Stayed a couple nights with friends for a "Book Retreat" and had the best time reading in the Hammock, chatting by the fire pit, and cooking together in the kitchen.

Our families slice of heaven
Marla's vacation home was very lovely. We liked the pictures of her place, but once we arrived we realized that she had remodeled a number of rooms. Each room was updated, very clean and cozy. Marla has made sure that her place is stocked with all of the large and small conveniences that guests would want in a home away from home. The location and the surroundings are stunning, especially with the Fall foliage. One can tell that Marla takes great pride in her beautiful rental. -Mark & Susan G

Waterfront★ Hot Tub ★ Kayaks ★ Firepit ★ Pet OK
From the moment we entered until We packed up we felt a world away from the house selling process. Aruna and Joe have done a beautiful job decorating the house inside and out. It felt so cozy to sit with the gas fireplace and look at the mallards, Canada geese and swans float by. The location was perfectly situated in a very safe neighborhood yet close to route 28. We loved our stay and hope to come back to explore the pond by kayak. Thank you so much!

Water Front Pond House - 3 acre Cape Cod Sanctuary
153 Morning Star Cartway was a perfect peaceful getaway for my college friends and me. We had a great time and Luther was an excellent host, providing us with lots of recommendations for local activities and was very responsive.

Private Waterfront Home on Picturesque Pond
This property was stunning! As described. Brenda was extremely responsive to messages. My family appreciated the labeling she had done, it made everything very easy to find. Anything you could want this place has it, from super comfortable beds, tons of space, clean, and beautiful views! We will definitely be back!

Waterfront Home in Centerville
One of my most favorite air bnbs by far! Janelle is an incredible, accommodating host. I can't say enough good things about her or this amazing house. Our stay was top notch. The space is gorgeous, clean and well-stocked. Will definitely be back!

Escape to cape/water front home
Tam is an excellent host. The lake is picturesque and peaceful. The property is nestled between mature evergreen trees. The house is newly renovated, light, white, bright. Kitchen is spacious and well-equipped. Beds are comfortable and bathrooms are clean. Lots of cleaning supplies. Tam was an exceptional communicator and very friendly. Appreciate the time!

P-Town Beach Beauty on the Bay. Water View!
We had a wonderful time at Rob's place in Provincetown this February. If you are looking for a quiet place on the East End in the off season this is an exceptional spot. Beautiful water views from the condo. A gorgeous beach with some of the best views in Provincetown is right across the street. Condo was perfectly cleaned upon arrival and exactly as described. Couldn't ask for more.

Luxury Waterfront Retreat with Private Deck
Wonderful penthouse-level property overlooking the wharf. Everything one would need was available on this property — top notch linens, towels, power outlets for electronics, silverware, cookware, glassware, appliances…everything. Decor was spectacular and interior design — second to none. In the heart of town and close to the best bars and restaurants. Highly recommend.

Beautiful place with cozy, beachy decor. We loved the location right on the beach with an incredible view! We could walk around town. The place was perfect and we would definitely stay there again!

Steps to Private Beach in Chatham
We absolutely loved our stay at Julia’s home! It was in amazing location close to the beautiful downtown but also very private. The private beach is hard to beat! The space was clean, exactly as pictured, and was stocked with anything you could need. Julia was an amazing host who provided clear instructions and responded quickly. We can’t wait to return for our next stay here. Thanks again Julia!!

Brian’s place was a lovely stay! Extremely clean, beautiful and comfortable. Many thoughtful touches throughout the home and a well stocked kitchen for any cooking. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again!

Renovated West-end Condo on the Bay w/ Parking
Jack was fantastic. Not only was the place gorgeous and comfortable, a snowstorm hit while we were there and he helped us navigate that and offered what he could do to help us out. Wonderful location, amazing views, and comfy home. 10/10

Steps to Beach - Luxe Modern Commercial St Condo
Chris’s place was exactly as described and depicted. Immaculately clean and very comfortable. Great location…..just steps to all of our favorite spots! Chris was also very responsive…. we hope to return again sometime!

Quiet East End 2 bedroom/2 bath Waterfront Condo!
We were pleasantly surprised with this condo, very comfortable making a great stay. Had all the amenities that we needed. The condo was right on the beach making for wonderful sunrises and sunsets over the bay. The location was great with a short walk to the center of town. Would recommend staying here and would definitely stay here again.
